| studio-user913 | hello | 19:26 |
| studio-user913 | I need help I think... | 19:26 |
| studio-user913 | I am very new to Ubuntu.... | 19:27 |
| zequence | studio-user913: What kind of problem are you having? | 19:27 |
| zequence | !ask | 19:27 |
| ubottu | Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience | 19:27 |
| studio-user913 | I just upgraded to 16.04. everything seems to be working fine, however the new installer is telling me it has an OS upgrade. | 19:28 |
| studio-user913 | I hit install....it pauses a moment then refreshes to the orginal message about the OS upgrade. | 19:28 |
| zequence | studio-user913: what kind of result do you get from this command: cat /etc/issue | 19:29 |
| studio-user913 | Im sorry zequence...you my have to baby step me through this... | 19:30 |
| studio-user913 | do I use the sudo with the command? | 19:30 |
| zequence | studio-user913: All right. | 19:30 |
| zequence | studio-user913: No problem, let's do it one step at a time | 19:30 |
| studio-user913 | thank you.....very kind | 19:30 |
| zequence | studio-user913: So, why I'm asking you to do this command is make sure that you are in fact in the correct issue of Ubuntu (which Ubuntu Studio is another flavor of) | 19:31 |
| studio-user913 | sure....do I use the superuser with the command? | 19:31 |
| zequence | studio-user913: "cat" is a program that outputs the contents of files. And, what I'm interested in is the contents of the file at /etc7Issue | 19:31 |
| zequence | studio-user913: So, therefore, open a terminal, and input the command, exactly like this: cat /etc/issue | 19:32 |
| studio-user913 | it says..... Ubuntu 16.04 LTS \n \l | 19:32 |
| zequence | Right, so there's no newer release. In that case, the upgrader is perhaps bugges in some way | 19:33 |
| studio-user913 | can it be healed?? HAHA | 19:33 |
| zequence | studio-user913: Could help reporting a bug. YOu'd need to setup a launchpad account for that. | 19:35 |
| zequence | studio-user913: That way, the fix would get in a later release | 19:35 |
| studio-user913 | please...how? | 19:35 |
| zequence | I mean, from an update | 19:35 |
| zequence | studio-user913: Well, start by creating an account at http://launchpad.net | 19:35 |
| studio-user046 | how can i search my ubuntu-studio computer for files? | 19:35 |
| zequence | studio-user913: Usually you can do that from your file manager, which is Thunar in the case of Ubuntu Studio7 | 19:36 |
| studio-user913 | Thank you.... You have been a source of releif. | 19:36 |
| zequence | Sorry :) | 19:36 |
| zequence | studio-user046: ^ | 19:36 |
| zequence | studio-user913: np. Hope you are enjoying your installation! | 19:37 |
| studio-user913 | Do any of you do professional video production? Noob question. | 19:37 |
| studio-user046 | Thank you, I'll get out of the way so you can continue with your other user, sorry for my interruption. | 19:38 |
| studio-user913 | In fact...I think I love it.... Want to transition completely away from windows. | 19:38 |
| zequence | studio-user913: Not mysef. sakrecoer might do some video editing. He's our new project lead, and mostly into graphics | 19:38 |
| zequence | studio-user046: Oh, don't be sorry! Theres's room enough for all of us! | 19:38 |
| zequence | hmm, that was strange. | 19:39 |
| studio-user913 | I hope I didn't bogart all your help. | 19:39 |
| zequence | I auto-complete and didn't take care of what I auto-completed | 19:39 |
| zequence | Nah, not to be unkind, but the problem was probably at his end, and he should realize it :) | 19:40 |
| studio-user913 | Is there an open source video editor that will import a file of edits from another editing program? | 19:41 |
| zequence | studio-user913: That I do not know. Seems like the best option there is to create suitable files to import for the new editor, if not | 19:41 |
| studio-user913 | Or am I looking at a full re-edit from zero?? | 19:41 |
| zequence | studio-user913: Are there any editors that will import another editors project files? | 19:42 |
| studio-user913 | yes. is there? | 19:42 |
| studio-user913 | this would make my transition to linux much faster and easier. | 19:43 |
| zequence | In pro audio world, different people use different tools | 19:43 |
| zequence | So, when you need to get something mixed, you first make files out of each channel, using a good format | 19:44 |
| zequence | The mixer gets the files, which were properly named, and imports them into his/hers DAW | 19:44 |
| zequence | No matter which OS | 19:44 |
| zequence | Since I don't know video, I couldn't say what is the norm there | 19:45 |
| studio-user913 | I have made all the different project files Lightworks Pro will make for me. I have had no success with kdenlive or pitivi or cinelerra | 19:45 |
| studio-user913 | Lightworks Pro will work in Linux but I have used up all my license. | 19:46 |
| studio-user913 | thank you so much...I will remember this as a resource in the future. Thank you all for your patients. Have a great day. | 19:49 |
| zequence | studio-user913: Sorry we can't help you further this time. | 19:52 |
| zequence | studio-user913: This channel is not very active, so patience is always required :) | 19:52 |
| zequence | studio-user913: I would also suggest checking out other channels and forums, especially for the more common applications. They all have their own channels | 19:53 |
| zequence | studio-user913: Like #blender | 19:53 |
| zequence | To join it, add this command into your IRC client(without the quotes) '/join #blender' | 19:54 |
| zequence | And, I'm sure there are plenty more | 19:54 |
| studio-user913 | Cool. Thank you. I'm glad I didn't leave. | 19:55 |
| studio-user913 | I just joined launchpad. | 19:55 |
| studio-user913 | but...How do I use it? | 19:55 |
| zequence | studio-user913: to report a bug in the system that is affected, just open a terminal and input the command 'ubuntu-bug <packagename>' (replace <packagename> with the name of the package) | 19:56 |
| zequence | So, to the next problem - what is the name of the package? | 19:56 |
| studio-user913 | that's all?? Very cool. | 19:56 |
| studio-user913 | but the name of the new software pkg say's | 19:57 |
| studio-user913 | "software". | 19:57 |
| studio-user913 | how do I get the name? | 19:57 |
| zequence | studio-user913: Which application was telling you to upgrade? | 19:58 |
| studio-user913 | I mean in the drop down menu | 19:58 |
| zequence | studio-user913: Was is "Software"? | 19:58 |
| studio-user913 | yes...in the dropdown menu under system. it's not the software center. | 19:59 |
| zequence | under system? | 19:59 |
| studio-user913 | yes...just one above software updater | 20:00 |
| zequence | Ok, so it's not the application called "Software". A Gnome application introduced to may of the flavors this cycle | 20:01 |
| zequence | Let's see what the ubuntu software upgrader is called.. | 20:01 |
| studio-user913 | it's not the "Ubuntu Software Center" That I was just getting use to before the update. haha | 20:02 |
| studio-user913 | No. It's just call "Software" in my drop down menu just above the "Software Updater". | 20:03 |
| zequence | Ok, so it's the package named 'gnome-software' | 20:03 |
| studio-user913 | I'm afraid not....just literally "Software". | 20:04 |
| zequence | ..in which case, you do the bug report just by doing this in a terminal: 'ubuntu-bug gnome-software' | 20:04 |
| zequence | The package name is gnome-software, but the pretty name is "Software" | 20:04 |
| studio-user913 | ohhhhh....okay. | 20:05 |
| studio-user913 | thank you again. | 20:05 |
| zequence | studio-user973: Hi! | 20:06 |
| studio-user973 | Hi | 20:07 |
| zequence | studio-user913: Yeah, the hard part is figuring out the package name. But - if you don't, you can always report a bug here https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntustudio/+filebug | 20:07 |
| studio-user913 | very good!! It worked of course. Thank you zequence. | 20:07 |
| zequence | studio-user973: New Ubuntu Studio user? | 20:08 |
| studio-user973 | Yes, but considering something else as cannot install any third party apps | 20:09 |
| zequence | studio-user973: Which third party apps? | 20:11 |
| studio-user973 | Any of them, but trying to install Torguard at the moment https://torguard.net/downloads.php | 20:13 |
| studio-user973 | torguard-latest-amd64.deb | 20:14 |
| zequence | studio-user973: Right. There's a problem with the GUI installer atm | 20:15 |
| zequence | studio-user973: If you want to install it "manually", download the .deb package, then use the terminal 'dpkg -i <packagename>' | 20:16 |
| zequence | studio-user973: Or, rather 'sudo dpkg -i <packagename>' | 20:16 |
| studio-user973 | Thank's I'll try that ... | 20:16 |
| zequence | studio-user973: You need any help with that, just let me know | 20:17 |
| zequence | noobity is welcome here. We were all noobs once | 20:17 |
| zequence | studio-user973: There's an update coming to the Software application that will ammend this, btw | 20:17 |
| studio-user973 | russell@russell-MS-7817:~$ sudo dpkg -i /downloads/torguard-latest-amd64.deb dpkg: error processing archive /downloads/torguard-latest-amd64.deb (--install): cannot access archive: No such file or directory Errors were encountered while processing: /downloads/torguard-latest-amd64.deb | 20:18 |
| zequence | studio-user973: Ok, so, there's no directory like /downloads, right? | 20:19 |
| zequence | studio-user973: I would think the folder is actually called Downloads, so this should work no matter your user name 'sudo dpkg -i /home/$USER/Downloads/torguard-latest-amd64.deb | 20:20 |
| studio-user973 | thisis the full path: /home/russell/Downloads/torguard-latest-amd64.deb | 20:20 |
| zequence | Right, so use that | 20:21 |
| zequence | You can exchange 'russel' with $USER. $USER is a environment variable that will always output the user who is currently logged in | 20:21 |
| studio-user973 | I found the problem - apparently it makes a difference whether you use caps or lowercase in the word "Downloads"? | 20:24 |
| zequence | studio-user973: Yes, only Windows does not | 20:24 |
| studio-user973 | I'll have to get used to that - thanks for the help. | 20:25 |
| zequence | studio-user973: Hope you have fun with it! | 20:25 |
| studio-user140 | Hola! Anyone around? | 22:18 |
| zequence | studio-user140: Hello | 22:18 |
| studio-user140 | Yay! Just installing the Studio. Can't wait to run it. Looks very beautiful already! | 22:19 |
| studio-user140 | Have been waiting for this moment for years! | 22:20 |
| zequence | studio-user140: Nice! | 22:20 |
| zequence | studio-user140: If you have any problems, don't hesitate to ask questions here | 22:20 |
| studio-user140 | Cool man! Cheers! | 22:20 |
| zequence | It may be a wait sometimes, but sooner or later someone will answer | 22:20 |
| zequence | you are more than welcome | 22:21 |
| zequence | studio-user140: May i ask, what in Ubuntu Studio are you most interested in - audio, video, graphics? | 22:21 |
| studio-user355 | Sorry Zequence, I was cut off before as my installation finished. | 23:06 |
| studio-user355 | I am originally more of an audio person but got recently more into webstuff. | 23:07 |
| zequence | studio-user355: Cool. If you want to help with our web site, just let us know. You can either get in touch with us on the irc channel #ubuntustudio-devel, or our devel mail list | 23:09 |
| zequence | We are actually planning an overhaul currently | 23:10 |
| zequence | There's a theme, which is mobile friendly,but not all of the details are there yet | 23:10 |
| studio-user355 | Wow! So easy to get into the club! How could I help? | 23:14 |
| zequence | studio-user355: There's no big thing to it. Just be in touch. The mail list is important, but a way to get close and personal is in deed the IRC channel | 23:15 |
| zequence | i.e. '/join #ubuntustudio-devel' | 23:15 |
| studio-user355 | Cool, thanks! | 23:16 |
| studio-user427 | Hello hello. Have some questions. | 23:50 |
| zequence | studio-user427: Shoot | 23:51 |
| zequence | Also, nice to see so many new Ubuntu Studio users on IRC! | 23:51 |
| cfhowlett | indeed. seems to be a new influx of sorts | 23:52 |
| studio-user427 | First, does ubuntu studio have a software center? | 23:52 |
| studio-user427 | Yeah my friend hooked me up with this OS | 23:53 |
| cfhowlett | studio-user427, there is a software center | 23:53 |
| studio-user427 | Cool were can I find it? | 23:53 |
| studio-user427 | where* | 23:53 |
| zequence | studio-user427: It's called "Software" in the latest release | 23:53 |
| cfhowlett | on the dock or through the system menu | 23:53 |
| zequence | The release being 16.04 | 23:54 |
| zequence | YOu should find it in the favorites section of the menu, but also the system part | 23:54 |
| studio-user427 | Oh! ok got it now thanks. No wonder I couldn't find it, haha | 23:55 |
| zequence | studio-user427: Apparently it has a bug, which prevents installing third party deb packages as of yet (meaning stuff you download), but that should be fixed shortly | 23:56 |
| zequence | Just make sure to update | 23:56 |
| studio-user427 | Ok, I want to install the Adobe Creative Suite at some point for my job. Will I be able to do that prior to the updates? | 23:57 |
| zequence | studio-user427: You can always install .deb packages using the terminal. Just do 'sudo dpkg -i /path/to/package.dev | 23:58 |
| zequence | should say .deb at the end, but anyway | 23:58 |
| studio-user427 | Ok, still new to the terminal so I'll make a note of that. | 23:59 |
| zequence | studio-user427: Usually you wouldn't need to use it, but before the bug is fixed, it's what works | 23:59 |
| zequence | Usually the gui tools will use terminal tools to do that kind of stuff | 23:59 |
| studio-user427 | Cool, sounds good. | 23:59 |
